As always with these QB prospects, the longer you start the more tape scouts have to pick apart your game. 

A lot of truth to this. All of takes is a down year for your team with your OL collapsing and all your weapons leaving and now all of a sudden all the questions are about you.

In all fairness, if Ridder had come out last year the flaws would have been exposed at that time, despite his great season.  It's not like his game went from perfect to flawed in 12 months.  You can't hide that stuff once people start to look hard.

Its gonna be a quarterback. Not sure how i feel about it, but thats my belief. 

I agree but I can also see them taking a Neal or Icky with the idea of trading back into the 1st round or acquiring a 2nd rounder for a QB. They could also do the same for Pickett @ #6 and trade future pick(s) for a chance to take Cross or Penning. The other option is just taking the best QB and signing Duane Brown or hoping Christensen makes a big leap @ LT. Either way, we have options despite the limited picks.

I have the sneaking feeling that someone will want to trade up for Sauce or Hamilton and 6 is a good starting point.

If Kayvon is there at 6 that means more than likely the top tackles are gone too which benefits the Panthers in a trade down as well. 

The draft is odd this year with prospects and such.

I agree, but think lots of coaches and GMs are willing to overlook that stuff when there is hype behind an “elite QB class”. When the class is looked down upon, then all of those little quirks get inflated to be fatal flaws.

I have been saying for a while that the chances of Neal or Ekwonu being there at #6 are probably better than people realize. Cross almost certainly will be.

It’s entirely possible that Cross could still be there even after the Eagles picks at 15 and 16

I am getting so many mixed messages. 
We are getting a QB at 6. 
We are not getting a QB at 6 and trade back. 
We are getting the best LT or DE at 6. 
If we don’t get either a good LT or DE we are trading back. 
Likely if we trade back we won’t be getting any of the QBs they want. Likely the Falcons and Seahawks and maybe even the Lions will all select a QB. 
Trading back is fine as long as we can get some value out of gag pick. Even though I have never been a fan of trading back. 

Yes.

This is what will happen.

      The Panthers keep making the same mistakes under new GM.

      By Jon Snow · Posted

      That offense last year was so predictable. I really don't know what the strategy was in the end. Did Frank not trust his qb? Did he not want the qb they selected? Did he not want a rookie at all? What the actual fug was the plan? He wasn't going to work on his qb's mechanics until year 2? What the actual fug is that kind of development? I have never seen a team go so sideways as this team did last year. I mean they weren't winning much anyway because the rest of the team was ass but damn! At least do something to show you give a damn.

      Powerful leg but the clip alluded to him missing a chip shot. They might have a new kicker but let's see how he does in preseason.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      My perception/opinion of the draft based on a few categories.  Solid draft in my opinion.  Addressing need with perceived roster upgrade:  A Got WR the team desperately needed, a solid pass catching RB and upgraded TE and LB positions with what could be contributors.  Value of players drafted: B- My non-expert ignorant opinion on Legette is he was a bit of a reach.  Full disclosure though, I thought Adonai Mitchell and Jackson Powers Johnson were solid first rounders and a lot of GM's and scouts disagreed.    Brooks being hurt is a question mark/flag for me.  Draft savvy:  A+ Moving up to first for the 5th year option was a smart move with little to no downside.  After that Morgan basically stole a 2nd round pick next year and still got his guy in the process.  Also seems to have kept consistency with that "dawg" mentality the FO has been pushing.
